Explore fractions, ratios, area, and perimeter through guided practice lessons.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Choose appropriate tools and units for given measurement situations involving squares and rectangles.

Students will play learning games to explore area, measurement, and angles.

This site contains an extensive list of various units of measurement known internationally and across several disciplines. Unit symbols are also included.

In this Cyberchase video segment, the CyberSquad learns what happens to the area of a rectangle when the shape enclosed by the perimeter changes.

This site contains a lesson plan for high school age students. The objective is to discover the factor of proportionality in similar polygons and to relate this factor to the perimeters and areas of similar polygons.

[Free Registration/Login Required] In this lesson students will understand area measured in square centimeters. They will understand and use the formula in words for the area of a rectangle.

In this exercise, students practice measure to find perimeter. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to watch a tutorial video, get hints, and try questions repeatedly.

This article describes a new approach to teaching children more than just memorizing a formula to find area and hope they don't confuse it with perimeter. This approach involves a project with real life situations....

In this exercise, students practice finding perimeter when given side lengths. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints and try questions repeatedly. CCSS.Math.Content.3.MD.D.8 Solve real world and...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Find the unknown dimensions of a parallelogram given its area and another measurement.

This activity is adapted from one of the TI books. Students measure lengths and widths of rectangles and record for the class to see. Each group's rectangle has the same perimeter, but different areas. After a discussion, students make...

In this activity, students find the area and the perimeter for several geometric shapes. They also determine the surface area and volume of spheres.

This task challenges a student to demonstrate understanding of the concept of measurement.

This page brings you to a table of contents of three-dimensional figures. Selecting a figure will bring you to a page defining and illustrating the figure with applicable formulas listed.

A ten question test for assessing measurement concepts of area and perimeter. Assessment is scored online and student scores are compared with other students who have taken the assessment. Great assessment tool.

In this lesson plan, 7th graders use the formula for circles to determine the area and perimeter.

Does bigger perimeter mean bigger area? Answer this question when you try this math challenge from the NCTM Math Challenges for Families series. Discover how understanding area and perimeter can be useful in real world situations.

Test your mathematical aptitude with challenge exploring the concepts of measurement and geometry. Find the area of the windshield wipers to figure out who sees better in the rain, car drivers or truck drivers. An activity from the NCTM...

Is it better to by block ice or crushed ice? Use your logical reasoning and measurement skills to solve this challenge that compares surface area of block ice and the same block cut into three cubes. A one page activity from the NCTM...

An applet activity that provides an exercise in working with perimeter and area of 2D objects. The user is given a random figure and allowed to enter a value for the area and perimeter. Use the "How" and the "Why" button to assist you....

Through this lesson, young scholars will learn how to use ratios to create a scale drawing of their classroom's floor plan. It provides adaptations, discussion questions, assessment rubric, and suggested readings to help develop...

Students use the Geoboard App to measure arcs, line segments, area, and perimeter, as well as rotate, reflect, and translate objects.

Convert metric measurements to U.S. Measurements and the reverse, too. Easy to follow tables have sections for area, length, mass,temperature and volume.
